Overview

UDOT has completed the environmental review and design of improvements along US-89 from SR-126 in South Willard to 3600 South in Perry. The US-89 subgrade material (e.g., compacted gravel) in this area has reached its operational expectancy and become unstable. Additionally, much of the existing surface drainage along this section of US-89 is uncontained resulting in ponding and roadway storm runoff (i.e., sheet flow) during stormy weather.

What is Next?

The environmental study and initial roadway design started in May 2022, and were completed in late-2024. The project has received funding to continue into construction in Spring 2025.

Primary Improvements...

• Reconstructing the roadway pavement and replacing the subgrade materials.
• Installing updgraded drainage systems.
• Implementing a consistent shoulder width.

The Project Will Also...

• Reconstruct affected driveways, parking lots, and landscape features.
• Relocate conflicting utilities.
• Repair the Willard Creek Box Culvert.
• Upgrade non-compliant roadside barriers and pedestrian ramps.
